Livestock owners (especially goats who have been pivotal to continued infestation) associated with Mexico are not hesitant about infesting U.S. with NWS. President Sheinbaum signed trade deal with South Korea on Sep 24, 2026 (the reopening day of the largest Santa Teresa NM livestock crossing. Next day was active wild NWS fly in trap in Brewster).

AZ, NM threat is unnecessary port reopenings by USDA
The pressure from the south has not eased. USDA counted 45,216 screwworm cases in Mexico through Sept. 30, according to the same hearing summary. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins has said progress is being made but has warned the threat has not passed, particularly for Arizona and New Mexico.
Fifty-two of the 53 U.S. cases involved domestic animals, and none has been confirmed in wildlife or feral animals. That is significant for Texas, where large white-tailed deer populations could help the parasite persist if it reached them.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports 52 New World screwworm cases in the United States since June 3, including two currently active cases, as the department continues surveillance and a phased reopening of southern cattle ports.
“The good news is only two of those are currently active,” Hoskins said. “That’s really a reflection and a credit to the work that USDA, APHIS — our whole-of-government approach — federal partners, state partners. Just a really remarkable effort to help keep those numbers down.”
